regarding the latest change, which is the former and which is the latter, it is unclear as you only mention kite flying in the sentence. Can you change it to "the geometric kite was inspired by the shape of the flying object" or whichever - I can't figureout which way it is. Onco_p53 11:09, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

The article is unclear regarding if the kite can be concave or only convex. In Hungary "deltoids" also include concave quadrilaterals having two pairs of equal sides, but of course concave deltoids can't be tangential. Cheers, SyP 20:46, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

In the USA we call non-convex deltoids "darts." I'm going to see if there's a Wikipedia page for them.... RobertAustin 16:06, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
